Hello
I am very VERYx10000 new to linux. And i can not get my Gentoo to find my nic card. I have an Elitegroup K7S5A motherboard with an integrated Nic card that is a SIS 735 which happens not to be in the kernel menu config.
please help me!

this looks to be your mainboard http://www.ecsusa.com/products/k7s5a.html but it doesn't mention which chip is on the nic.

so its a good idea to check in lspci / dmesg if the kernel found anything :)

the sis900 module should work, as about 3 seconds on google reveal.
